Notes: The NFL has reduced the amount of time to make each pick in the first round from 15 minutes to 10.
This year, the prospective draftees are permitted to select their own "Walk up" music. That should be interesting!

Wouldn't be surprised to see them go mostly defense in this draft. They got lit up WAY too much over the 2nd half of the season.

Also, they like Jenkins and Hemingway and did bring Dressler down from the CFL and have high hopes for Kelce at TE. If things don't work out with their receiver corp, then they'll more that enough picks in 2015 to address it.

Yeah a 4th. One year of him, Crabtree and Boldin will
be a nice look (with Vernon Davis).

...Brandon Lloyd too. Also the shake-up of picks that Baalke made added another 4th rounder for the 49ers next year. Essentially meaning they picked up Johnson for their fourth and later picked up a better 4th rounder next year. Baalke had me baffled after he passed on a WR and seemingly reached for Ward last night, but after today I'm just shaking my head and seeing him as a mad-scientist.

I like your guy's draft so far....would like to see an athletic WR and possibly some OL depth for you coming up?!

The 49ers own my heart, but the Chiefs will always hold a better than neutral spot for giving my favorite player a place to leave with grace...

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS
Nice length. Terrific timed speed, blazing sub-4.4 times at the combine. Can be deployed in zone coverage. Plays the pocket. Good production on the ball, with 35 passes defended the last two seasons. Tough and competitive. Is hardworking and well respected by coaches and teammates. Recorded second-quickest three-cone drill among cornerbacks at the combine (6.62 seconds).
WEAKNESSES
Durability is a concern. Has been dinged up. Underdeveloped and underpowered. Does not play to timed speed. Not equipped to handle man-to-man responsibility. Poor run supporter and tackler. Does not project as a core special-teams player. Tweener traits.
DRAFT PROJECTION
Rounds 4-5
BOTTOM LINE
Lean, active zone corner whose ball skills will have to carry him. Could earn a roster spot on pure measurables but lacks desirable functional speed, strength and physicality.
